  2. Octal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octal

    Octal ( base 8) is a numeral system with eight as the base . In the decimal system, each place is a power of ten. For example: In the octal system, each place is a power of eight. For example: By performing the calculation above in the familiar decimal system, we see why 112 in octal is equal to in decimal.

    "A base is a natural number B whose powers (B multiplied by itself some number of times) are specially designated within a numerical system." [1]: 38 The term is not equivalent to radix, as it applies to all numerical notation systems (not just positional ones with a radix) and most systems of spoken numbers. [1]

    The system was used in 1942–44 and assigned numbers with the base form "1A21", and is therefore also referred to as the "1A21 system". [1] The first numeric character indicated the filament/heater power rating, the second alphabetic character was a code for the function, and the last 2 digits were sequentially assigned, beginning with 21

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_socket

    An early transistor socket and an integrated circuit socket are included for comparison. Tube sockets are electrical sockets into which vacuum tubes (electronic valves) can be plugged, holding them in place and providing terminals, which can be soldered into the circuit, for each of the pins. Sockets are designed to allow tubes to be inserted ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_prefix

    Numeral or number prefixes are prefixes derived from numerals or occasionally other numbers. In English and many other languages, they are used to coin numerous series of words. For example: simplex, duplex (communication in only 1 direction at a time, in 2 directions simultaneously) unicycle, bicycle, tricycle (vehicle with 1 wheel, 2 wheels ...

    SAE steel grades. The SAE steel grades system is a standard alloy numbering system (SAE J1086 – Numbering Metals and Alloys) for steel grades maintained by SAE International . In the 1930s and 1940s, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and SAE were both involved in efforts to standardize such a numbering system for steels.

  9. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    Therefore, binary quantities are written in a base-8, or "octal", or, much more commonly, a base-16, "hexadecimal" (hex), number format. In the decimal system, there are 10 digits, 0 through 9, which combine to form numbers. In an octal system, there are only 8 digits, 0 through 7. That is, the value of an octal "10" is the same as a decimal "8 ...
